While some may label Marvel Rivals as an Overwatch clone, creator NetEase earns credit for finding innovative ways to appeal to its unabashedly thirsty audience. Introducing Lady Loki, a brand-new costume for the existing Strategist hero Loki, providing players a faithful to the comics version of the Asgardian deity.
Despite some predictions and fears, the previously teased Lady Loki costume is definitely not a skin for Hela. Instead, it is a full-on reskin of Loki himself, complete with new voiceover work. Judging by the official preview, Lady Loki keeps all of Loki's core abilities: his projectile attack, Deception, and his clone ability. The only change is her new appearance, designed to appeal to an audience more than ready to spend their Lattice.
Below is a look at Lady Loki on the battlefield, along with a sample of her new voiceover, performed by voice actor Abby Trott. Notably Trott is also the voice behind Magik in Marvel Rivals.
The character's lines and visual flair bring a new dynamic to the familiar playstyle.
With NetEase has broken the seal with this gender-bent skin for Loki, the Marvel Rivals community is already speculating about future possibilities. Popular ideas now include:
The big question is: Does NetEase have the courage to introduce more obscure variants, such as former hero Sharon Ventura as She-Thing? That will probably hinge on fan demand!
The Lady Loki skin will be available in Marvel Rivals from January 1, 2026, at 6 p.m. PST until January 29, 2026, at 6 p.m. PST.
